Virginia Regional Festival of Flight

Post by Sir Real »

Hey, folks, it's time once again for the Virginia Regional Festival of Flight (Once known as the EAA Virginia Regional Fly-In, before EAA punked out of the Fly-In business). The dates are Saturday & Sunday, May 22 & 23. Decent number of vendors, lots of forums. We had over 200 planes & ultralights last year, including the Just Aircraft folks (Hope they're coming back...). It will be at Suffolk Executive Airport (KSFQ), about 5 miles from the NC border and about 15-20 miles inland, so it's local for a lot of NC folks as well as Mid-Atlantic types. Check out the website at http://www.virginiaflyin.org" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

We're always looking for Volunteers, too... :D

Some of you might be interested to know that we will have one of the restoration experts from the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum doing workshops on fabric covering & rib stitching. We have a great selection of forums & workshops. Check out the website for a list.

Hey Guys,

Just a few more days now! This event was fantastic last year and I hear it should be even better this year.

Cheers,
Dennis

I'd like to thank the Just folks for sending the Black Beauty to the Festival of Flight. They were only able to be there for a few hours on Sunday before they had to beat the weather back out. Unfortunately, while the weather was beautiful on Saturday at the airport, there were forecast T-storms all weekend that kept people away, so the event was sparsely attended.

Oh, well, next year will be better.
